and tinin various proportions, employing for this purpose chemical agents and appropriate apparatus, or effecting it by means of electrometallurgy, or any of the known means of electricity. I brighten the crystallized layers by means of acidulatcd baths, and I obtain crystallized surfaces with various effects. I

then make a suitable design on stone or zinc, and by any means employed in the trade for printing. I submit my fabrics or other matters prepared as above-described to this printing-plate, employing suitable printing colors, velvet powder, mica powder, 850., and the metallic bronzes. The parts of the design that are not covered with the printing color or substance stand out from the opaque ground and appear in all their brilliancy. I finally place upon the crystallized threads, by hand or otherwise, transparent colorssuch as spirit-varnishes, tinted oil-varnishes, or other transparent colors.

Applied to linoleum my invention is of especial value. v a

I do not claim attaching metal foil to fabrics. In such foil the particles of the metal adhere together, while my crystalline deposits adhere only to the fabric, and therefore do not interfere with the flexibility of the fabric, nor with the durability of the ornamentation.
